It... [connor takes a deep breath, trying, desperately, to keep himself from falling apart in from of jack any more than he already has.] I didn't kill him. I was asked to go to our professor's house so we could pick up Wes' girlfriend. I didn't know she was stealing from our professor's husband. He found her, though. Chased her.

[sometimes the memory is a blur, like it happened to someone else. sometimes its so vivid its like it happens all over again]

He was going to choke her. He probably would've killed her. Wes hit him over the head with this trophy. And then...he died. And we took care of it.

You're not a murderer. You were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

[jack wonders if he'll give himself a break if he hears that enough.]

You're a good person. Good people always get caught up in other people's bullshit.

I hurt Oliver. I cheated on him, before.

[i guess hes just determined to prove he's not a good person.]

[benumbing]

And now you're proving your loyalty to him. [he holds up a hand.] Look, you're even turning me down. That's admirable.

[iustitiae]

It is admirable.

[he laughs a little bit]

If things weren't so complicated, I'm jump you in a heartbeat.

[benumbing]

And I'd let you.

[the laugh sounds good from him. it makes him feel a little bit better.]

But I won't complicate them more.

[iustitiae]

I'll just have to think of you fondly.

[#gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay]

[benumbing]

Just not in the shower. Unless that doesn't count as cheating in your book.

[iustitiae]

Right, of course not.
